Extraordinary Savings on Seasonable Merchandise in All Departments HUGE ASSET NEGLECTED THE MORNING OREGOXTAN, TUESDAY, AUGUST 2, 1921 " URGED OREGON 7P ANNIVERSARY S AIES - Promotion, of Arid Acres Would Add $500,000,000 Annually to Wealth of People. Oregon might benefit financially (300,000,000 a. year by developing modern land settlement plans and reclaiming? its vast acres that are now a liability instead of an asset, said B. F. Faast, president of the Wisconsin Colonization company of Eau Claire, in an address before the members' forum of the Chamber of Commerce yesterday noon. His re marks were reinforced by H. F. Kussell, dean of agriculture of the University of Wisconsin, and E. F. Benson, manager of the department of immigration and Industry of the Northern Pacific railway. Messrs. Russell and Faast gave up half of their summer vacation to coma west and tell their story of the importance of reclaiming lands of various kinds. Mr. Faast grave facts of demonstrated value as the prac tical head of a practical private busi ness venture, which in 15 years has put 1000 families on logged-off acres in Wisconsin, and Dean Russell showed what a state may do to assist these and similar enterprises with out itself going into the business on Its own account. He believes private conduct, supervised by the state, preferable to state operation out right. Northern Pacific Interested. Mr. Benson said that the Northern Pacific wants to get more settlers on the land in Oregon and other places throughout its system and stands ready to back up any legiti mate movement, handled by the state or any responsible concern. He per suaded his friends from Wisconsin to come out here, he said, because he knew they had practical, proved knowledge of the reclamation sub ject which. . if personally imparted, would be of great value to Oregon people. "If Wisconsin or any state works out son system that is of value, I know Oregon well enough to know that you want to hear about it and that you will use it,"' said Mr. Benson. The Northern Pacific wants you to have every possible help. Including first-hand information, and if there is anything it can do to assist in de velopment, its hand is extended to you." . James B. Kerr, a classmate of Dean Russell, introduced three ' speakers. Mr. Faast sketched briefly the prog ress of logged-off land activity in his home state and emphasized the point that, to make successful, happy set tlers, it is necessary that they be not only provided with suitable land, but that they shall be guaranteed the financial assistance so essential to their well being. "Iteady-Made" Farm Sold. To do this, his company sells "ready-made" farms, consisting of house, barn, tools, etc., on a 30-year basis, no payments whatever for the first three years, providing they re main on the land and develop it to a certain degree annually; in addition, they get loans for incidentals from $200 to $300 these years to encour age them and make life more pleasant while they are getting under way. "As the farmers of America con sume 70 per cent of the output of our factories, said Mr. Faast, "it stands to reason that they constitute the most important business factor and purchasing power. It follows that we should give their business our best thought. You cannot have happy farmers unless you make conditions favorable for happiness. I am not going to tell you how to do this, for I know that the same brains that de veloped such beautiful cities, such as Portland; that conceived and con structed the Columbia river highway i and brought about such wonders of modern development here can easily, if they set to it, work out country plans equally well. Tracts Carefully Platted. "In Wisconsin we get the best plan ners obtainable and had our tracts laid out for the prospective settlers in a. manner just as careful as any mod ern city has ever laid out its civic centers or the widening of its streets or the architectural features of its big buildings. We had all the good roads necessary; all the little com munity centers, all the villages planned on a modern style. Farmers must have these things if they are to live like people should live and they won't stay farmers unless they do nave them. "We have 60,000 acres laid out this way, with already 1000 settlers there on. That they are contented is shown by results. We have had no more than ordinary difficulties to over come. We have six styles of homes, economically constructed, and all farm buildings, tools, etc., are there for the farmer when he moves onto his chosen place. Give the same thought to your reclamation prob lems that you have to your city prob lems and you'll solve them." Service Important Feature. "Land with service" is the modern method of handling reclamation prob lems, according to Dean Russell. He declared he would rather pay $25 for service and $15 for land than the reverse. He said there are many ways in which the state may be of invaluable help without itself going into the land business. He does not believe a state should go into the business. Personally," said Dean Russell, "I favor private undertakings, but with state supervision. For example, in Wisconsin we have this system: The state requires a license of every realty operator. As long as he treats the people right, the state co-operates with him and them; when he does not. his case goes before a com mission for investigation. Last year. many licenses were revoked and a wholesome effect was had. State Aid Always Valuable. "The state also may be of help by furnishing correct maps,, denoting the nature of the soil, as to its varying values and comparative growing capabilities; by experiment stations, such as Oregon has, and' by a sDirt of real friendliness all along the line. Dean Russell related his exDerl ence in salvaging a vast amount of high explosives which the war de partment had on hand at the time of the armistice and which it was pro posed to throw into the ocean. Thii was taken and put through a process vhich made its use safe for farmers in clearing land at a greatly reduced price.

Davis of Vale, Or., ap pears, temporarily t least, to have been- eliminated from the elate ar ranged some time ago for federal appointments in Alaska. After Mr. Davis' appointment was agreed upon, a second conference was held, which was attended by John T. Adams, chairman of the republican national committee. At this conference it was decided to appoint only Alaskans to judicial positions in the territory. Three of the four judicial appoint ments were sent to the senate today, but no on was named for the sec ond district, to which Mr. Davis was to have been assigned. Chairman Adams told Senator Stanfield that if any outsider is appointed. to this va cancy the place will go to Mr. Davis. On objection by Representative Mann of Illinois a bill by Repre sentative Albert Johnson, providing for a study of the Cowlitz and Puy allup rivers with a view of providing flood control, was passed over in the house today.

(Spe cial.) Following the seventh annual gathering of the" Kpworth League in stitute in Jefferson, the mecca for young church workers of the Metho dist Episcopal church probably will be moved to a more central location so as to cater to both the Salem and the Portland districts. This, it is said, was the outcome of a meeting of the board of control held on the grounds yesterday. It is rumored -that Canby may be chosen as a meeting place. The grounds here could not be purchased or leased for a term of years so permanent improvements could be made. The board decided that this was the most successful institute ever held in the history of the institution. The grounds, it is said, will be turned into an out of town resort or roadhouse by the owners. The Epworth League board of con trol will now seek to lease or pur chase a suitable location to be the permanent home of the institute, the Jefferson institute having proved that there is a growing demand for such a meeting. The institute closed today with a large crowd in attendance, many com ing . from Portland last night . and others from the country surrounding Jefferson. The three churches of the city united with the campers. needed for this purpose and a vote of the electorate will be necessary to provide funds. The annual Industrial school fair will be held in mid-September as usual. L. B. Gibson, county school superintendent, in charge of prepara tion for the exhibits of students, says this event bids fair to eclipse those of former seasons.
